Many of you will have seen Steve Taylor's enthusiastic editorial about the possibility of Wrington twinning with Villeneuve-lès-Béziers in France. Like me, you may have visited their web site. It certainly looks a delightful place. However, there are a number of things to be borne in mind: firstly, it is nearly double the size of Wrington - more a small town than a village and secondly, it has a much larger town council with a Some people have expressed an interest but this has got to be a working interest since we would have to set up a twinning committee. None of our Parish Councillors know much about how we should go about it, what it would cost etc. I would, therefore, like to invite anyone with knowledge of twinning and/or who is prepared to become actively involved in such an enterprise, to contact our Parish Clerk, Gabrielle. If we get a satisfactory If we could get this off the ground, I would say that Wrington has much to offer with such wonderful places as Bath, Wells, Cheddar Gorge and the great maritime city of Bristol within easy reach. |

The ice and snow in January have given rise to a number of requests from residents for grit bins to be provided in various locations in the Parish. These requests are currently being considered by the Parish Council, which would be responsible for buying the bins. North Somerset Council would provide the grit and salt. Recreation Field: there is currently a problem with dogs' mess, particularly in the area by the bottom gate. This is near the children's play area, and could pose a danger to the health of any children who Parish Council meetings in March Tuesday 16 March - Planning Committee meeting at 6.00 pm: Wednesday 24 March - Parish Council meeting at 7.30 pm Wednesday 21 April - Annual Parish Meeting at 7.30 pm in Wrington Memorial Hall Parish Council and Planning Committee meetings take place in the John Locke Room, Silver Street, Wrington, and are open to the public.
